The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- XLE closes above its 50-day average ($65.01), and the 50-day sits above the 200-day ($58.83): on both averages the chart reads as an uptrend.
- At $67.63, XLE is 3.6% below its 1-year high of $70.15, set on October 30, 2026, and 56.6% above its 1-year low of $43.19 (November 4, 2025).
- Over the past month XLE rose 7.7%, from $62.82 to $67.63.
- XLE trades at 19.3x its last twelve months of earnings; Yahoo Finance has no forward estimate for it.
- XLE's 30-day volatility, 24.6% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 1.5%.
What would change the read
- A close under the 50-day average, $65.01 (−3.9% from the last close), would turn the read to a pullback; under the 200-day, $58.83 (−13.0%), the longer rise is in question.
- A close above $70.15 (+3.7%) would be a new 1-year high; below $43.19 (−36.1%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for XLE, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
